from September twenty second, nineteen fifty, here is Operation Sellout.

13
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: Are you willing to undertake a dangerous mission behind the

14
00:01:07,599 --> 00:01:10,840
enemy lines knowing you may never return alive.

15
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 3: What you have just heard is the question asked during

16
00:01:20,599 --> 00:01:24,159
the war to agents of the OSS. Ordinary citizens to

17
00:01:24,439 --> 00:01:26,239
this question answered yes.

18
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,879
Speaker 2: This is Cloak and Dagger.

19
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,359
Speaker 3: Black warfare, espionage, international intrigue. These are the weapons of

20
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,200
the OSS. Today's adventure, Operation Sellout, is the story of

21
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,959
an American agent who went into German occupied France to

22
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,280
locate Nazi submarine bases, and is suggested by actual incidents

23
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,000
recorded in the Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services,

24
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,199
a story that can now be told.

25
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 4: I knew something was up when Colonel Palmer met Tom

26
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,039
Barnes and me at the dock that night. He hadn't

27
00:02:27,039 --> 00:02:29,520
come down from London just to wish his bon voyage.

28
00:02:30,439 --> 00:02:33,680
There wasn't time for such formalities in the OSS, even

29
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,479
when a couple of its agents were embarking for the

30
00:02:35,479 --> 00:02:40,560
coast of Nazi occupied France. None at the Chief pulled

31
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,680
to a stopped. The Colonel stepped into the faint glow

32
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,400
of the blackout life Captain Dagger.

33
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,879
Speaker 2: Yes, sir, this is the radio operator. Captain. That's right,

34
00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:52,719
So I'm Bond Blans Corporal Bond Sussex. Gods, you men

35
00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:55,439
are all set, Yes, sir. We shove off in twenty

36
00:02:55,479 --> 00:02:59,599
minutes and he'll put you ashore below Santas just before dawn.

37
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,319
After you've been landed, you'll move inland exactly six kilometers.

38
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,599
You'll be met there by an agent of the Marquis.

39
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:13,759
Understand I men.

40
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 4: We got a lecture then, and we didn't need it.

41
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:22,800
We knew our mission was important. German submarines and hitting

42
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:27,560
our convoys and the Atlantic hitting them hard. Shipping losses

43
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,759
had to be cut and the best way to cut

44
00:03:29,759 --> 00:03:33,719
them was to blast the Nazi subpens along the French coast. Understand,

45
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,560
it was my job to locate the biggest pens. It

46
00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:39,319
was Tom's job to radio the information back to England,

47
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,719
so the Allied air forces with no where to lay

48
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:45,560
their eggs. No, we didn't need any lecture and how

49
00:03:45,599 --> 00:03:46,560
important it was.

50
00:03:48,639 --> 00:03:49,439
Speaker 2: You're not listening.

51
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sorry, colonel. I heard it all in London

52
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,800
two days ago, Sir. I was wondering why you came

53
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:57,800
down here to say it again.

54
00:03:58,319 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 2: And they've had another reason for coming down. That's what

55
00:04:01,319 --> 00:04:07,599
we figure, Sir. There's been a change and plans slight one. Yes,

56
00:04:08,479 --> 00:04:11,560
Originally you two were the one to take this mission alone.

57
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,360
I've decided now to send a third man with you.

58
00:04:16,399 --> 00:04:17,079
Speaker 4: Who is it, sir?

59
00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: I'd rather say nothing about it till you see him.

60
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:26,680
He'll be something of a surprise to you, perhaps surpriser, yes,

61
00:04:26,879 --> 00:04:30,399
though not too unpleasant one. I hope your reaction to

62
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,680
him may well determine the success of your mission.

63
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 4: I afraid I don't understand, Colonel.

64
00:04:35,879 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 2: You will admit it. He's already on the boat.

65
00:04:38,319 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 4: Hold on, Tom and I followed the Colonel an on Doc.

66
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,160
The British Navy torpedo boat that was going to take

67
00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:49,279
us across the channel lay in the water, black shadow

68
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:52,920
on the Black Knight. We climbed the board, stowed our

69
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,680
gear on Dick, who called the Ford Cavin. Tom and

70
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,839
I exchanged looks. Neither of us like this a slight

71
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,079
change and plans.

72
00:05:02,199 --> 00:05:03,639
Speaker 2: Your new man is in here, Captain.

73
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,319
Speaker 4: Let's have a look at him, Colonel. For a moment,

74
00:05:07,399 --> 00:05:09,399
the bright lights of the cabin spilling out on the

75
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:13,879
deck blinded me. Then I saw him. First I thought

76
00:05:13,879 --> 00:05:17,199
it was a gag until the guy turned, until he

77
00:05:17,199 --> 00:05:20,120
made a stiff bow from the waist, until he said,

78
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,480
good evening, gentlemen. I'm looking Carl Mulla of the German

79
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,720
ice Fair, and I knew it wasn't a gag. He

80
00:05:27,879 --> 00:05:30,399
belonged in that uniform he was wearing. It was all

81
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,279
his every Nazi stitch of it, right up to the

82
00:05:33,319 --> 00:05:35,319
Death's head in signy on his left shoulder.

83
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,519
Speaker 2: EMLA, this is Captain LINCD. Dagger and this is a

84
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,920
couple of Bonds of the British Army and detached service

85
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:42,600
with the OSS.

86
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:46,759
Speaker 4: It is a pleasure to meet you, gentlemen, is it? Oh?

87
00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:51,879
Palmer May Bonds and I speak to you alone?

88
00:05:52,439 --> 00:05:52,759
Speaker 2: All right?

89
00:05:53,399 --> 00:05:54,759
Speaker 4: I will go out on deck.

90
00:05:57,439 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: Wellan.

91
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,399
Speaker 4: Although we have to say it, Sir, you must know

92
00:06:00,439 --> 00:06:01,319
how we feel about this.

93
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 5: I'll say a link So.

94
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,439
Speaker 2: I don't like the idea of taking a jerry with

95
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:06,639
us in the Nazi territory.

96
00:06:08,639 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 5: Do we have to do it?

97
00:06:09,439 --> 00:06:12,879
Speaker 2: Colonel, you volunteered for this mission, Bonds. You don't have

98
00:06:12,959 --> 00:06:14,680
to do anything. Here's a degger and I can do

99
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,839
the job. So without a Jerry, even do it faster

100
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,720
with him, Corporal, and we've got to start hitting those

101
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:23,639
subvents as quickly as possible. Meller will be valuable to

102
00:06:23,639 --> 00:06:26,959
you in obtaining information from his former fellow officers.

103
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,439
Speaker 5: Must have a lot of faith in this Nazisir.

104
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 2: He's not a Nazi, He's a German.

105
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 5: Is there a difference?

106
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:35,199
Speaker 2: Yes?

107
00:06:35,519 --> 00:06:37,319
Speaker 4: Even when he was an officer in one of Hitler's

108
00:06:37,319 --> 00:06:38,680
Pet Division's colonels.

109
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,639
Speaker 2: Through no choice of his own, Daggat, Meller was captured

110
00:06:41,639 --> 00:06:44,040
by the British North Africa two years ago. He's been

111
00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:47,000
working as an interpreter for the OSS for eighteen months.

112
00:06:47,319 --> 00:06:50,759
He's been thoroughly screened. We have faith in his story

113
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,839
that he's always been opposed to Hitler.

114
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,079
Speaker 4: Wellly, he could have been lying to you, sir, just

115
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,439
waiting for a chance like this, a chance to get

116
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,720
back to German territory.

117
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 2: It could have been. We don't think it was.

118
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, But if he were, Sir, Bonds and I are

119
00:07:02,399 --> 00:07:04,240
a couple of dead ducks. He'll sell us out the

120
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,480
minute we get across the channel.

121
00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:10,399
Speaker 2: That's quite true, Daggett. And that's the chance you'll both

122
00:07:10,439 --> 00:07:11,040
have to take.

123
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,639
Speaker 4: We could have backed out, but we didn't. You never do.

124
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,360
So we headed across the channel, one Englishman, one American,

125
00:07:26,439 --> 00:07:30,759
and one German. I don't know what the German was thinking.

126
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,759
He didn't say much, but the Englishman and the American

127
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,639
were thinking it was going to be a one way trip.

128
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,240
Just before dawn, the torpedo boat put us ashore below

129
00:07:43,319 --> 00:07:46,800
Santa's Air He stood listening to a motors die away,

130
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,079
and I turned and walked up to Lieutenant Calm Mueler.

131
00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:54,759
I lifted his lugo out of its holster, and he

132
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,879
didn't say a word. I broke the gun open. Were

133
00:07:58,879 --> 00:08:01,399
twelve rounds in the cliff in one shell in the chamber.

134
00:08:02,279 --> 00:08:04,120
I dropped the clip in my pocket and handed the

135
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,160
gun back to him, the shell still in it. Down here,

136
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:11,680
cap Bedine, you'll learn I left you one shell. If

137
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,160
anything goes wrong, you may need it. That is, if

138
00:08:15,199 --> 00:08:16,560
you're on a level, I.

139
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,079
Speaker 6: Will usually thought myself, rather than fall into the hands

140
00:08:19,079 --> 00:08:19,759
of the Nazis.

141
00:08:19,959 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know you will if you're on the level.

142
00:08:23,439 --> 00:08:25,680
If you're not, though, you'll think twice about using it

143
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,480
on us. See you, you couldn't get both of us

144
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:36,080
with one shell, understand Yeah, I understand. Here, cap be Diane.

145
00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:41,360
It was just a phony gesture. Of course. He knew

146
00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:43,600
as well as I did that it didn't mean a thing.

147
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,600
The country was occupied by a half million of his countrymen.

148
00:08:47,919 --> 00:08:50,320
He could wipe us out like stepping an up bug

149
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,879
if he wanted it too. Dawn was breaking and he

150
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,320
left the beach. He started inland to keep Irondezvou with

151
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,639
Philippe monte Hand and my key agent, who was to

152
00:09:01,639 --> 00:09:04,919
set us up with a base of operations. We must

153
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:08,600
have made quite a picture. Two men dressed as French peasants,

154
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:13,120
trudging along behind a Nazi officer. He kept to the

155
00:09:13,159 --> 00:09:15,720
fields and moved along hedge rows as much as we could.

156
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,559
And then we came to a highway. German army Laurie

157
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,600
rumbled by while we squatted behind the hedge row and

158
00:09:22,639 --> 00:09:23,320
held our breath.

159
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:33,759
Speaker 5: That's all cleonomic.

160
00:09:34,399 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, we'll cross one at a time. You first knew, yeah, yeah,

161
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:48,399
could be dead. He got over the hedge row and

162
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,159
out onto the highway. It was halfway across. Tom and

163
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,840
I straighten up to follow him, and we saw it.

164
00:09:55,159 --> 00:09:58,559
We dropped down again. A German reconnaissance car swinging around

165
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:03,639
the bend in the road, stopped a few feet from Muler.

166
00:10:04,639 --> 00:10:08,639
He looked at the Nazis, He looked at him.

167
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 2: We looked at.

168
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 4: Both of them through the hedge row and waited.

169
00:10:14,639 --> 00:10:16,399
Speaker 5: Ida I hit that.

170
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 4: It was in the lift of his voice. It was

171
00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:24,399
in a smile on his face. There was no mistaking it.

172
00:10:24,879 --> 00:10:30,840
Hal Mueller was back with his buddies. Hal Muler was home.

173
00:10:33,399 --> 00:10:37,279
Speaker 5: I think let's get away from her, make a run

174
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,240
for a long hedgerow.

175
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,799
Speaker 4: For what he tips off those crowds. We won't get

176
00:10:40,799 --> 00:10:41,399
ten feet.

177
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 5: Yes, I guess you're right.

178
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:54,279
Speaker 2: Well, if we go, I'm taking Jerry with us.

179
00:10:55,399 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 4: I'd had the same idea. I had already sneaked my

180
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,000
revolver out of my coat. We drew a bead on

181
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,120
that stiff Prussian back, and we did some all waiting,

182
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:18,480
crouching and waiting until I hit now, all right here, capitan,

183
00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:20,679
it is safe for you to come out.

184
00:11:20,799 --> 00:11:21,039
Speaker 1: Now.

185
00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 4: We went out, but not before it exchanged another whisper,

186
00:11:26,759 --> 00:11:29,159
not before Barnes said what we were both thinking.

187
00:11:30,039 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: Maybe the Colonel was right ling, maybe the jetty is

188
00:11:33,639 --> 00:11:38,399
on the square, or maybe he's just smarter than we thought.

189
00:11:38,879 --> 00:11:42,519
Speaker 5: What do you mean, smart enough to use us for bait?

190
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:45,759
That was it?

191
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,519
Speaker 4: Bait? Why get rid of us so fast? We weren't

192
00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:52,000
that important. He could get rid of us whenever he

193
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,159
wanted to, and he'd only wanted to after we'd served

194
00:11:55,159 --> 00:11:58,399
his purpose, after we'd jeopardized the French my quy by

195
00:11:58,399 --> 00:12:02,480
exposing them to him. Yes, after we'd sent a lot

196
00:12:02,519 --> 00:12:07,120
of Yankee and British flyers to their death join Mueller

197
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:11,759
and continued on to our rendezvous point. There's nothing I

198
00:12:11,799 --> 00:12:14,399
could do about it. You'll have been as signed as

199
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,840
a member of the mission. So if I'd acted like one.

200
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,000
You don't knock off a fellow agent unless you're sure.

201
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 5: All right, link, We'll just six kilometers east of the beach.

202
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, yeah, this patch of woods must be the place.

203
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,080
What do we do now here, Capitaine? Nothing?

204
00:12:34,399 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 5: Just wait, wait for what? Monsieur stepped out from.

205
00:12:38,159 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 4: Behind a bush as silently as a shadow. But shadows

206
00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:43,480
don't carry Tommy guns.

207
00:12:43,919 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 5: You were expecting someone, Monsieur.

208
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, man named Philippe Martan.

209
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:52,279
Speaker 2: I am Philippe.

210
00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:54,919
Speaker 4: Then you know who we are now.

211
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 5: I'm afraid not, monsieur. If there were two of you,

212
00:12:57,799 --> 00:12:58,360
I would.

213
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,919
Speaker 2: Know, but not three.

214
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 4: There was a last minute change of plans.

215
00:13:02,879 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 5: A very great change, since it made room for a

216
00:13:06,039 --> 00:13:06,840
Nazi officer.

217
00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 4: Look, not all men who wear Nazi uniforms a Nazi officer, true, Monsieur.

218
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,919
Speaker 5: But old frenchmen know are Nazi when they see one

219
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,679
ino out of uniform. Why is this man here?

220
00:13:17,799 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 4: Tommy gun was shoving in a Mula's chest. I had

221
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,559
to talk fast. I explained who the German was. I said,

222
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,000
the OSS trusted.

223
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 5: Him, the OSS made passed him, Monsieur, but I passed

224
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:31,000
no German.

225
00:13:31,159 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 4: That makes no difference. I orders are that mule is

226
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,679
a remember this mission. Let's get going. You hear me

227
00:13:37,759 --> 00:13:38,200
my time?

228
00:13:40,279 --> 00:13:45,799
Speaker 5: Very well, monsieur, follow me. Where are you taking us

229
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,799
to my farm? You will set up your radio in

230
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,159
my barn?

231
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 4: Is it safe?

232
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:52,639
Speaker 2: Safe?

233
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 5: Why don't you ask your friend Herr Muller.

234
00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 4: Two hours later, Time had his transmitter set up in

235
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:09,000
a loft to Philippe Martin's farm a few miles outside

236
00:14:09,039 --> 00:14:12,080
Santa's Air. With your permission in here, Capitaine, I will

237
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:16,639
leave now. Yeah, you know what you're to do, Mula, Yeah, yeah.

238
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,360
With these forged orders Colonel Palmer gave me, I will

239
00:14:20,399 --> 00:14:24,080
be able to secure all the necessary information about submarine

240
00:14:24,159 --> 00:14:27,080
pins in the Santas Air area if you want to,

241
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,399
I hope her, Capitaine, I will be able to prove

242
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,759
to you that I do want to.

243
00:14:34,679 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 5: We hope so too, Mulla.

244
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 4: All right, get going. Expect you to contact us daily.

245
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,399
Speaker 5: You don't hear from you somes at the door.

246
00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:46,919
Speaker 4: How could that be, Philip pit It's.

247
00:14:46,759 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 5: All right, monsieur. He's my sister Mary. She's also a

248
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,039
loyal member of McKee.

249
00:14:54,639 --> 00:14:58,639
Speaker 4: Marie Martin wasn't just a loyal my key member. She

250
00:14:58,759 --> 00:15:01,879
was a beautiful one too. I wouldn't have had a

251
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:04,039
look at herd and lord and only have had a

252
00:15:04,039 --> 00:15:07,440
look at that Tom Barnes, as a brother, introduced her.

253
00:15:07,639 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 5: This is my sister, Marie, monsieur Marie, Captain Daggett, go

254
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:20,080
for Barnes and and hell late a germ here teller.

255
00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:23,279
Speaker 4: Mueller is a prisoner of war, mademoiselle working for the USS.

256
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,360
He is a Nazi, an X Nazi, Mademoiselle.

257
00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:29,279
Speaker 7: The only X Nazis are dead ones.

258
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 4: Philip, throw this pig out of here, mademoiselle. Brother and

259
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,480
I have had all this out. Philipps agreed to you

260
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,960
no right to agree. This is as much my power

261
00:15:38,919 --> 00:15:42,120
met it is his. I will not have a Nazi

262
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,399
on it, all right, all right. In as much as

263
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,480
Muella is just leaving for Santa's Air on a mission, you.

264
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:52,559
Speaker 8: Are sending him on a mission. You must be out

265
00:15:52,559 --> 00:15:54,039
of your mind, Gabita, I.

266
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,399
Speaker 4: Brother and I have had all this out. Philipp's agreed

267
00:15:58,440 --> 00:15:59,639
to you no right to agree.

268
00:16:00,039 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 7: This is as much my farm as it is his.

269
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,879
I will not have Enotsy on it.

270
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 4: All right, all right. In as much as Mule is

271
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,759
just leaving for Santa's Air on a mission, you are.

272
00:16:10,679 --> 00:16:14,759
Speaker 8: Sending him on a mission. You must be out of

273
00:16:14,799 --> 00:16:17,360
your mind, Cabite.

274
00:16:17,799 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 2: I think she has a point link. You remember that

275
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,639
little discussion we had back on the highway about bait. Yeah,

276
00:16:24,679 --> 00:16:27,679
I remember, Tan, And I'm pretty sure now that we

277
00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:29,519
were right. We have no more proof now than we

278
00:16:29,559 --> 00:16:30,039
did then.

279
00:16:30,559 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 8: I would rather he would stay here, Capitel, than see

280
00:16:33,639 --> 00:16:34,600
him go on a mission.

281
00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 4: Well, here, Capitaine, get going, you'll learn.

282
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:45,919
Speaker 5: Sastan.

283
00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:49,399
Speaker 4: You will hear from me here Capitaine.

284
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,159
Speaker 7: We you will hear from him through the Gestapo.

285
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 4: I wasn't sure she was wrong, and Tom Barnes was

286
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:06,839
sure she was right. But then Tom's judgment wasn't to

287
00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:15,759
be trusted, not where Marie my town was concerned. Well, Tom,

288
00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:17,319
where you've been? Oh?

289
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 2: I took a walk with Marie down Mother Brook.

290
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 4: You take a lot of walks with Marie, don't you.

291
00:17:26,839 --> 00:17:27,200
Why not?

292
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,599
Speaker 2: There's nothing to do but cool our heels until we

293
00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:35,640
hear from Mulla, And quite frankly, old man, I can't

294
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,960
think of anybody I'd rather cool my heels with.

295
00:17:41,759 --> 00:17:44,519
Speaker 4: And then we heard from Mueller. We heard quite a

296
00:17:44,559 --> 00:17:47,200
lot from him, and not through the Gestapo either. You

297
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,720
must copy these maps immediately, her capitan. I must get

298
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,160
them back to the Nazi headquarters before morning. You will

299
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,680
find on them the location of the Nazi subpins from

300
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:05,240
San Jasea to Dunkirk. I copied the maps and deciphered

301
00:18:05,279 --> 00:18:07,720
the code symbols. Turned my report over to Tom to

302
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:10,440
transmit to England. But Tom was stubborn. How do you

303
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,880
know those maps weren't fatling? I don't.

304
00:18:13,039 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 5: Maybe Mula's using us just the way we thought here.

305
00:18:15,319 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 2: Maybe he is.

306
00:18:15,759 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 5: And why on else?

307
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 4: Said that's tough, because those are my orders and I'm going.

308
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,039
Speaker 5: To obey them.

309
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 4: Send it Tom, we'll see what happens. Well, we saw

310
00:18:27,839 --> 00:18:31,799
what happened that night off in the distance of thousand

311
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:36,000
searchlights stamped the sky, when black puffs and smoke everywhere,

312
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,359
the truants were throwing up a curtain of flect that

313
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:45,440
no air force and the whole world could penetrate. Next day,

314
00:18:45,599 --> 00:18:49,079
Mueller came back to the barn. By then Tom had

315
00:18:49,079 --> 00:18:50,720
received the box score from England.

316
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 9: Twenty planes. You hear that, Murea, we lost twenty planes

317
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:55,640
last night.

318
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 4: I do not understand here, Corporate.

319
00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:02,319
Speaker 9: Oh no, oh, you don't understand it at all, do you?

320
00:19:03,079 --> 00:19:05,119
They knew we were coming. They were waiting for us.

321
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,559
But you don't understand it.

322
00:19:07,599 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 4: You are implying, of course, that I betrayed you. But

323
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,279
I give you my word.

324
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 7: He is the word. I'm a Nazi. Are you perhaps

325
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:18,079
convinced now?

326
00:19:18,279 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 5: I told you we should have listened to hurling easy?

327
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 8: It is too late, of course to save those twenty planes.

328
00:19:26,039 --> 00:19:28,119
It is not too late to stop other.

329
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 2: Raids, because of course he's righting Al Radio Colonel Palmer,

330
00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:34,920
this minute.

331
00:19:34,319 --> 00:19:40,559
Speaker 4: Capitane, Well Muller, I am, I have another map.

332
00:19:41,279 --> 00:19:42,799
Speaker 5: If you wish to look at.

333
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 4: It, all right, let's see it. I am. I would

334
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,119
prefer the show it to you alone.

335
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,079
Speaker 7: Alone? Why you pick up a German?

336
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 2: Come?

337
00:19:57,759 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 5: Are you suggesting there's anyone help but yourself? Will come?

338
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 4: Trusted Lord Mula, You're in no position to make such

339
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,759
a request. You have something to show me you can

340
00:20:05,799 --> 00:20:12,000
show to me here, very well, here, Capitane. He had

341
00:20:12,039 --> 00:20:14,640
something to show me, all right, A detailed shot of

342
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,480
the biggest sub pens along the whole coast. I knew

343
00:20:17,519 --> 00:20:19,839
it was worth any risk to try to smash those pens,

344
00:20:20,279 --> 00:20:22,839
but Tom Barnes didn't know it. He needed a lot

345
00:20:22,839 --> 00:20:26,039
of convincing. He insisted that shot was bait, just bait.

346
00:20:27,599 --> 00:20:32,599
It turned out he was right. Next week was a nightmare.

347
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:39,920
Eight Plansas, ten, six at Cherbourg, nine, at Lahare. Everywhere

348
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,319
we struck the crowds while waiting operations sell out. Tom

349
00:20:43,319 --> 00:20:46,839
and I called it. We had a name for Lighten.

350
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:52,160
At Muler two, Tom wasn't around at night. I reached

351
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,960
a decision. I went looking for him down by the brook.

352
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,480
Of course it was a bright moon. I saw two

353
00:21:01,519 --> 00:21:06,200
figures as I approached. Then two figures became one for

354
00:21:06,279 --> 00:21:06,680
a moment.

355
00:21:09,319 --> 00:21:11,279
Speaker 5: I love you, Marie.

356
00:21:12,079 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 8: Oh shit, you must not say it in once today

357
00:21:17,559 --> 00:21:19,400
there's no place for the word love.

358
00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 2: Maybe not madame, But when the water is over, I'm

359
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,240
going to ask you to marry Tom Link.

360
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:30,559
Speaker 5: What are you doing here?

361
00:21:30,839 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 4: Get back to the barn. Want you radio Palma to

362
00:21:33,279 --> 00:21:34,240
call off the raids.

363
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 7: At last you have come to your stensis capita.

364
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,799
Speaker 4: What about Mueler? I think we'll forget Mueller. It's almost

365
00:21:39,799 --> 00:21:41,519
a week since we heard from him. You don't even

366
00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:42,240
know where he is.

367
00:21:42,599 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 8: But we can guess no capital. He is in Berlin,

368
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,079
probably receiving a medal from his.

369
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 4: Spir Tom and I had to work fast. Once it done.

370
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,519
On the Germans that there'd be no more rage. They'd

371
00:21:58,519 --> 00:22:02,039
be after us. Radioed the Colonel canceling the raids, telling

372
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,680
him we thought our mission was over. Six hours later

373
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:10,240
came the answer. The colonel thought otherwise, Good lord, we

374
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,880
can't be serious. Link, Hey, serious? All right? He still

375
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,720
wants to smash those subpins at Sander's Air. Since they

376
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:17,920
couldn't do it from the air, they're going to do

377
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:26,759
it from the ground with a commando raid. Yeah, commando raid,

378
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,640
a hit and run attack where coordination and split second

379
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,920
timing were everything. Tom and I were to be the

380
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:32,599
inside man.

381
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 5: Big job.

382
00:22:34,039 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, but this time we didn't have two strikes against us. No,

383
00:22:38,319 --> 00:22:41,440
because this was one clam bake that Carl Mueller wouldn't

384
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,480
know anything about. What do we do? First, Link contact

385
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,880
the local leader of the my key, Well, let him

386
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,640
know what's happening and he'll give us a safer place

387
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:50,119
to roost.

388
00:22:50,519 --> 00:22:52,759
Speaker 5: But how do we contact him? Philip w know him,

389
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,200
Philip's and Van. How about Marie?

390
00:22:57,519 --> 00:23:05,279
Speaker 4: She might know too, Right, go get her? He went

391
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,519
to find Maria. I packed up the radio and the

392
00:23:07,519 --> 00:23:10,799
other equipment. I heard the door open me. I thought

393
00:23:10,799 --> 00:23:14,519
he brought it back. I was wrong. Good evening, hair

394
00:23:14,559 --> 00:23:17,839
capy Taine Muller. I didn't expect you to show your

395
00:23:17,839 --> 00:23:20,400
face around here again. I heard in Santa say that

396
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:21,759
their aids have been canceled.

397
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,079
Speaker 6: So if you and corporate bonds might be on your

398
00:23:24,079 --> 00:23:25,960
way back to England, we're packing now.

399
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:31,079
Speaker 4: Oh I am not to go back with you. Then

400
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,759
there's only one place you are going, Muler.

401
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 2: So.

402
00:23:38,559 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 4: Put your gun away, hair Capitaine. You do not need

403
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,240
to kill me, since you are leaving me here. I

404
00:23:45,279 --> 00:23:47,839
shall make use of the one shell you so kindly

405
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,519
left in my evolv. Yeah, yeah, I'm sure you will.

406
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,799
You couldn't bear to be left behind with your Nazi pals.

407
00:23:54,839 --> 00:23:59,759
Could you learned from Michael house shuts? I didn't know

408
00:23:59,799 --> 00:24:01,759
where they were from. I didn't wait to find out.

409
00:24:01,759 --> 00:24:04,279
I hit the floor, dragging the candle off the table

410
00:24:04,319 --> 00:24:07,400
with me. The barn went black. I lay there for

411
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,559
a second, and then from outside I.

412
00:24:09,519 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 5: Heard this has him lightly. I think I got him.

413
00:24:11,839 --> 00:24:14,519
Speaker 4: Tom had fired the shots. When I lit the candle again,

414
00:24:14,559 --> 00:24:16,680
I saw it was wrong. The doorway where Mueller had

415
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:22,160
been standing was empty. Mula was gone. I was sure

416
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,079
I hit all right? Never mind, we got something more

417
00:24:24,079 --> 00:24:26,039
important to think about the Mueller, he told Marie.

418
00:24:26,079 --> 00:24:28,880
Speaker 7: We capita, he told me, you wish to see the

419
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:29,920
local marquis leader.

420
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,279
Speaker 5: That's right.

421
00:24:30,279 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 4: Can you take us to him?

422
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,759
Speaker 7: May we, Capita? I will arrange for you to meet

423
00:24:33,799 --> 00:24:34,480
Monsieur n.

424
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,559
Speaker 4: She said it would take until the next evening to

425
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,000
arrange it. Tom and I cleared out of the farm

426
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,480
and hold up in the patch of woods where we

427
00:24:44,599 --> 00:24:48,039
first met Philippe. Of course you had a start raining

428
00:24:51,079 --> 00:24:53,079
just before dog Marie showed up in the woods.

429
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 7: It is done, Capita.

430
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,559
Speaker 8: Monsieur t N will be waiting for you at eight

431
00:24:56,559 --> 00:24:58,880
o'clock the room behind the village cafe.

432
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 2: Good work, Marie, you're going there with us Andre Dommy,

433
00:25:02,039 --> 00:25:02,880
no moche.

434
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,400
Speaker 8: I must return to Monsieur Tienne. But I will be

435
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:07,720
waiting for you at the tackle.

436
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 4: She was standing in the doorway when we got there

437
00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:18,279
at eight. She led us around the bank into a small, dirty,

438
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,200
dimly lit room.

439
00:25:20,599 --> 00:25:21,599
Speaker 2: What's why, monsieur.

440
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 4: He rose from his chair and stood behind the table.

441
00:25:26,759 --> 00:25:30,200
Monsieur Etim was a small dark man. His eyes were

442
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,559
shifty and calculating, kind of eyes you often find in

443
00:25:33,559 --> 00:25:34,799
the head that has a price on it.

444
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 5: My apology is, monsieur for not seeing you sooner. I

445
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,759
was at my headquarters in the hills.

446
00:25:39,799 --> 00:25:42,759
Speaker 2: I had to walk down the roads were within muddy.

447
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,519
Speaker 4: No apologies necessary, monsieur.

448
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,519
Speaker 2: Mademoiselle Martin informs me, you wish the assistance of the magis.

449
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 4: We need plenty of assistance. British commandos are planning raid

450
00:25:53,759 --> 00:25:57,000
on the port of Santa's are a commander san Nase.

451
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,200
Eyes of his grew wider, they grew bright. He stepped

452
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,680
from behind the table. But he shouldn't have, because that

453
00:26:07,839 --> 00:26:11,599
was when I saw his boots. They were clean and polished.

454
00:26:12,079 --> 00:26:14,319
There wasn't a speck of mud on him, and yet

455
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,000
he'd walked through the mud from his headquarters in the hills.

456
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,759
Speaker 2: He said, is something that met there?

457
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:24,839
Speaker 4: He knew something was a matter, all right. He knew

458
00:26:24,839 --> 00:26:27,640
what it was too. He saw my eyes on his boots,

459
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,839
and he understood. His hand went under his coat, but

460
00:26:29,839 --> 00:26:31,759
it never came out, because that was all I needed,

461
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,359
for the love of Heaven, one shot did it. He

462
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,519
grabbed his stomach and he slumped to the floor.

463
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,519
Speaker 5: Lord link costs the idea.

464
00:26:42,599 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's one collaborator, less sure, That's all he was.

465
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,960
Tom Natcy's planted him here to find out about our

466
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:49,359
new mission.

467
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 5: Yes, but they didn't know we had a new mission

468
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,759
you sent me. Would have thought we were packing up

469
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:53,519
to go back to England.

470
00:26:53,599 --> 00:26:54,039
Speaker 4: That's right.

471
00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 5: He did well? Then, who could.

472
00:26:55,279 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 4: Have started to tell him? He saw it for himself, Marie.

473
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,200
A look on her face confirmed it. A look on

474
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,960
his face. It's the kind of thing you don't like

475
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,160
to remember. That was all she needed. She bowlted for

476
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,000
the door and threw it open. I took one while

477
00:27:17,079 --> 00:27:19,920
shot at her, and I missed. Before I got fired again,

478
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,599
she was gone. She knows about the raid Link. We've

479
00:27:21,599 --> 00:27:23,200
got to stop her before she gets to the German.

480
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,119
There's no telling which way she went on. We'll split up.

481
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,279
You go that way and out.

482
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,759
Speaker 5: The clink. Who's Marie?

483
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 4: Come on? Ran down the dark alley behind the cafe

484
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,319
the end of it. We found her lying face down

485
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:40,240
in the mud.

486
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 5: She's deadlink.

487
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, but.

488
00:27:50,839 --> 00:27:54,039
Speaker 5: Who shut her? I did here, Corporal Mueler.

489
00:27:58,279 --> 00:28:02,599
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry her, Barns. I know how you felt

490
00:28:02,599 --> 00:28:08,720
about but she was our enemy. She had to die.

491
00:28:08,799 --> 00:28:11,559
But how did you know? Mueller?

492
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,279
Speaker 6: I finally found a Frenchman who trusted me her Capitaine.

493
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 4: His name is Monsieur Etienne. You mean that was his name?

494
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:21,759
You see?

495
00:28:22,039 --> 00:28:25,799
Speaker 6: He thought that I was a Nazi too, he confided

496
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:33,119
in me. I said, Mueller, Yeah, her copper. Okay, I

497
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,839
ought to tell you. What I mean is I don't

498
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,599
know how to say it. I'm sorry I didn't trust.

499
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,559
Speaker 4: Do not say it, please, I I understand.

500
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 5: Her.

501
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 4: Capitaine.

502
00:28:49,759 --> 00:28:53,279
Speaker 6: Yes, Mulla, I have used that one shell you left

503
00:28:53,279 --> 00:28:57,440
in my revolver, but I wonder if you would permit

504
00:28:57,519 --> 00:28:58,759
me to have one more.

505
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 4: On No, not one more, Carl, I'm giving you back

506
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:16,119
the whole clip. That same night we contacted the real

507
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,799
leader of the my key. Two weeks later, the commando

508
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,160
struck in his air. They wiped out that subpen and

509
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,319
they went back to England. Tom Barnes and I went

510
00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:27,640
with him, and so did our friend Carl Mueller.

511
00:29:29,559 --> 00:29:32,599
Speaker 3: And once again the report of another OSS agent closes

512
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:33,039
with the.

513
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 2: Words mission accomplished.

514
00:29:35,319 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 3: Listen again next week for another true adventure from the

515
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,400
files of the OSS on.

516
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,359
Speaker 2: Clok and Dagger.

517
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 10: Heard in today as Clark and Dagger Adventurer as Captain

518
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,599
Daggett was Carl Eastman, Tom Barnes, I and Marker, Carl Mueller,

519
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:03,319
Louis van Ruten, Reed Louise Edison, a Jen Raymond Edward Johnson,

520
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:05,160
Anomas and the.

521
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,319
Speaker 5: Nazi Carl Webber.

522
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,359
Speaker 10: The script was written by Kenfield and music was under

523
00:30:09,359 --> 00:30:12,480
the direction of John Guard, sound effects by Many Siagul

524
00:30:12,519 --> 00:30:17,160
and John Cowards Engineering Donovan. Today's OSS Adventure was based

525
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,000
on the book Clock and Dagger by Corey Fort and

526
00:30:19,039 --> 00:30:22,240
Alistair McBain. This program is produced by Lewis G. Collen

527
00:30:22,279 --> 00:30:25,599
and Alfred Hollanda under the direction and supervision of Sherman Marx.

528
00:30:27,599 --> 00:30:30,799
Speaker 5: Three Gimes Mean Good Times on NBC.

529
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: Welcome Back. This was an interesting episode. I'll think that

530
00:30:38,119 --> 00:30:43,799
our hero suspicion of Mueller is definitely understandable now, certainly

531
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:50,519
his superiors had trusted Mueller enough for this assignment. On

532
00:30:50,599 --> 00:30:53,799
the other hand, you can recall the episode a few

533
00:30:53,839 --> 00:30:58,400
weeks back where the OSS agent in the Netherlands convinced

534
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,759
the Nazis he'd gone over to their side. I talked

535
00:31:01,799 --> 00:31:05,839
about the danger when you're in war and emotions are

536
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:12,880
high and you've got propaganda going that you can believe

537
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:18,759
your own propaganda and the idea of an enemy switching

538
00:31:18,799 --> 00:31:21,519
over to your side can be quite comforting, and so

539
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:26,000
you might have had this same thing happening here, only

540
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:32,440
with the Allies, and of course there's a huge emotional bias. Now,

541
00:31:32,839 --> 00:31:37,359
the captain explained that not everyone who wore a German

542
00:31:37,519 --> 00:31:43,920
uniform was a AKA, a Nazi party member or committed

543
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:48,880
to Nazi ideology, but it wasn't something he said with

544
00:31:49,039 --> 00:31:54,119
a whole lot of conviction, and American propaganda at the

545
00:31:54,319 --> 00:31:59,759
time rarely, if ever acknowledged this fact. In fact, I

546
00:31:59,759 --> 00:32:04,400
think even to this day, there's a very widespread idea

547
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:09,759
that everyone who served in the German military was a

548
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:15,160
committed follower of Hitler and of the Nazi ideology. I

549
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,640
even had to correct a computer program that stated that

550
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,880
Rommel was a naz Now, obviously there were a lot

551
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:31,200
of committed Nazis in the German military and various branches

552
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:36,599
of it, but there were also many con scripts and

553
00:32:36,839 --> 00:32:40,759
the number of conscripts in the German army increased as

554
00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:44,640
the war went on, and not all of those people

555
00:32:45,119 --> 00:32:49,759
were there because they loved Hitler and supported Nazi ideology.

556
00:32:50,079 --> 00:32:53,839
Some had been, or their families had been, members of

557
00:32:54,039 --> 00:32:59,960
opposition political parties before Hitler abolished them. Before the November nine,

558
00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:04,880
nineteen thirty three elections. Now that nuance might be realistic,

559
00:33:05,039 --> 00:33:09,599
but it's not particularly helpful in war time. It makes

560
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:13,119
it easier to kill the enemy if you imagine all

561
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:19,359
combatants monolithically as enthusiastic supporters of the furor.

562
00:33:19,759 --> 00:33:21,799
Speaker 5: And for practical purposes.

563
00:33:21,279 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 1: If a German soldier's pointing a gun at you, it

564
00:33:24,319 --> 00:33:30,039
really doesn't matter if they backed the Social Democratic Party

565
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:34,279
in the March nineteen thirty three elections. But the existence

566
00:33:34,319 --> 00:33:40,559
of someone like Mueller is no ideological loyalty to Hitler

567
00:33:41,559 --> 00:33:45,440
and forced into the military for some reason and willing

568
00:33:45,599 --> 00:33:50,519
to help out the Allies is certainly something that you

569
00:33:50,599 --> 00:33:55,480
can believe happened. All right, Listener comments and feedback and

570
00:33:56,079 --> 00:33:59,599
just a brief comment over on Spotify from doctor who
